UNSD-DFID project on SDG monitoring: an overview
Dhaka, April 2019
United Nations Statistics Division
CONTEXT
Data for the 2030 Agenda • Follow-up and Review
17 goals, 169 targets, 232 indicators
Tracking progress on SDGs requires an unprecedented amount of data and statistics
• Full implementation
High-quality, open, timely and disaggregated data are vital for the implementation of the agenda
UN Statistics Division work on SDGs
• Follow-up and Review
IAEG-SDGs
Open Data
Data platforms
SDMX
• Full implementation
IAEG-SDGs/data disaggregation
HLG-PCCB
Implementation of CTGAP
UN WDF
Integration of data sources/data interoperability
SDG reporting
• National and subnational reporting are the most significant levels of the SDG review process
• The global SDG monitoring system also builds on national data reporting
– Data derived from national sources is the foundation for SDG reviews at all levels
– It is crucial to create opportunities for countries to directly contribute to global reporting
THE PROJECT
• Improved capacity of project countries to support SDG monitoring
• Increased availability of SDG Indicators at National and International levels
• Improved coordination of National Statistical Systems around SDG indicators
Effective monitoring
of the SDGs and
improved evidence-based policy making

What does the project cover?
Activities and tools to help in making national and global SDG indicators available to users
▪ SDG capacity gap assessments -> SDG monitoring strategies▪ SDG user engagement strategies▪ National dissemination platforms ▪ SDG metadata compilation▪ Data and metadata exchange▪ Coordination of NSS – data sharing arrangements▪ Open data and data interoperability▪ Making use of administrative and emerging data sources
National SDG platforms
Each country identifies a suitable statistical dissemination platform- Front end: The platform where users access
SDG information- Back end: The database that contains and
manages all the data and the data exchange in the background
- Not necessarily limited to SDGs only
UNSD and partners provide training and support
Coordination of National Statistical System
One of the key activities is to work with countries to:- Improve the coordination within the national statistical system- Key to improving the quality and timeliness of SDG indicators- Focus is on data sharing mechanisms between members of the National
Statistical System
Data and metadata exchange
SDMX-based data and metadata
exchange will be established with all
project countries
- Training in SDMX is being provided
National and global SDG indicators are
presented in the Global SDGs Data
Platform
Guidance on national data exchange.
Data have minimal value without metadata
Metadata are key to establishing methodology and assessing quality as well as
explaining differences between the global and national datasets
Publication of metadata will be facilitated
Metadata
Users’ engagement Users and producers need to work
together for NSS to function properly
Identifying users and addressing their
needs are key prerequisites for for the
NSO and NSS to provide relevant data
and communicate data effectively
User engagement strategies are
expected to be developed by all project
countries when they are not already in
place.
Other activities
Other activities for improving access to or dissemination of SDG
data and metadata are linked to the project thanks to additional
contributions and collaboration with partners
–Data disaggregation
–Use of administrative data
–Use of new data sources
–Open data and data interoperability
– Integration with geospatial information
Good practices and experience sharing All countries have good practices or
experiences that are useful for others
The project support experience exchange through:- Sharing experiences at project website- Organizing international workshops- Share country examples at workshops- Study visits- Online exchange forums
• Cambodia: dot.Stat and protocols for data sharing• Ethiopia: Quality Assessment of administrative registers• Ghana: Dissemination platform and national metadata trainings• Rwanda: Dissemination strategy• Uganda: Gender disaggregation process• Bangladesh: Dissemination platform
